Model Shoot - practice, practice, practice

During the slow season, a few of us like to stay fresh, and keep shooting, even if the Pennsylvania weather doesn't play nicely. Towards the end of February, a group of us got together to have some fun, practice some off camera lighting and share info back and forth (ok, a few drinks may have been involved too :) ).

After the make-up and hair was done, we started off at Elfreth's Alley.  From there you took a short drive to Washington Square Park.  You can't tell from the pictures, but it below 20 degrees this night.  These girls were definitely troopers.

Erika knows how to strike the pose.  - Side note, Erika is one of the Philly 52 models.  Congrats!

Philadelphia Flower Show

Still playing catch up on the blog here.. Each year at the beginning of March, the Philadelphia Flower show opens up.  I take the opportunity to walk around and look for different angles and ways to use light in different ways.

Even when not "on duty" I still get suckered in to shooting the wedding ;) ...

These shoes were made entirely out of plants and flowers.  pretty cool. (not wearable though)
